Funny story about tonight… At the end of mass today, our priest said he had just one thing to say.. “Go Steelers!” Most of the congregation booed him jokingly. Then he added, ‘hey, I’m from Chicago, remember!” Which earned him some claps and laughs.

ilb, the Packers. Roethlisberger might be the biggest jackwagon of them all, IMO. Plus, its Pittsburgh. How can you root for a team from a town that roots for Crosby, Makinstein and Cooke? I surely can’t.

“2) However, I cannot believe the end-of-the-world reaction to this streak in some quarters. Do you guys/gals remember where this franchise was in 2009? Where it was last year? Hello? Short memories? Do you guys remember thinking, “I love this team?” Or “I can live with the bumps and hiccups of having all this youth in the lineup?” Or “As long as they put in the effort and work hard every night …?” I absolutely am stunned that a little slump like this—one in which they’ve played hard every night, one in which they really could have won every game with a little luck or a big save or a power-play goal (or a shootout goal vs. Pitt)—can suddenly turn all the good equity this team has built into just another, “this team stinks.” Shocked.”

Carp, this is the reason I just don’t post much anymore. I find the comments to be completely “knee jerk” in there reasoning. I read everyday and absolutely love your game reviews but as far as posting…there is no point.

Wow, no penalties like the block in the back against the Jets. And no stupid decisions from Ben against the Jets. Looks like Ben doesnt care now that he aint facing New York. Guess he is a jackwagon. We all know he’ll never beat the Paytriots in a meaningful game.

been great ilb!
Love this team, love its “jam”, grit, hootspa, cajones etc.
Love the core, the coach, the youth.
Love the struggles…love watchiing this team grow.
I even like this losing streak…better now than later.
This losing streak is going to help these kids get better.

ARLINGTON, Texas — After a limited number of sections in temporary seating areas at Cowboys Stadium were not completed in time, 400 fans were not able to attend Super Bowl XLV on Sunday.

Two hours before the game, workers were frantically trying to fix the sections or get the fans “relocated to similar or better seats,” valued at $900. The NFL found alternate seating for 850 of the 1,250 fans affected. The 400 who were not able to be seated were given a refund of triple face value — $2,700.

they tend to do that in the 2nd half ilbzo. i watched some of them last night because we were not gonna watch the game tonight. I’ll watch the rest online sometime this week. I just hope the Packers win, I have two really good friends who are HUGE Packers fans

Tiki, I feel the need TO clarify things like this recently. Especially in light of a conversation I had with a co-worker who felt ‘out of sorts’ when I was using sarcasm because this person coudn’t tell if I was being serious or not.

WTG Packers! I’m a Giants fan myself, but could not stand to see the Steelers and Therapist Roethlisberger win again. For the citizens in and around Dallas, I’m not sure what’s worse…Ben losing the big game, or him winning the big game. Either way, I’d lock-up my wives and daughters and load-up the old blunderbuss…

Hahaha, Carp I took your word for it and bet it all on the Steelers! Haha, just kidding. I was arguing pretty good last night a buddy of mine about the game tonight, and it basically turned into a shouting match, a-la “taste great!” “Less-filling!” “Packers!” “Steelers!” hahaha, again and again. Guess I was right.

“I understand and share your frustration, but we don’t deserve to be champions tonight. We had our chance and didn’t perform. We don’t “deserve” anything. The Green Bay Packers deserve to be champions tonight. Congratulations to them”

Naa, the guy’s not a real Paytriots fan! Because any real Paytriots fan wouldn’t give credit to any other team. And of course the Paytriots “deserve” everything; they’re owed :)

Good Morning Heads!
Carp, great job nailing the score last night! Hey, I won the Super Bowl pool at work! Perfect time too because I’m going to the game on Sunday!!!!! I’ll have some spending money. Woo!!!
